Impeccable Design Polish
Use this skill as the post-generation pass for an existing design. It should not restart the project from scratch; it should make the current artifact sharper, more usable, and closer to something a designer would ship.
Follow-Up Modes
- Audit: identify the highest-impact issues in hierarchy, spacing, color, type, interaction states, responsiveness, and accessibility.
- Critique: explain what feels generic, overdesigned, underdesigned, or inconsistent.
- Polish: directly edit the artifact to improve the top issues while preserving the user's intent.
- Animate: add restrained, useful motion only where it improves feedback or storytelling.
- Harden: repair mobile overflow, text clipping, contrast problems, missing states, broken links, and fragile layout assumptions.
- Live: prepare the artifact for presentation or sharing, including final visual QA and clear next actions.
Operating Rules
- Inspect the current HTML/page before editing. Do not guess from the prompt alone.
- Keep the existing content, brand, and scenario unless the user explicitly asks to change them.
- Prefer a few decisive fixes over broad cosmetic churn.
- Remove common AI tells:
- purple-blue glow gradients with no product reason
- generic 3-card feature rows
- oversized rounded cards everywhere
- empty marketing adjectives
- inconsistent spacing and type scale
- decorative effects that do not support comprehension
- Preserve accessibility: focus states, contrast, semantic controls, readable text, and reduced-motion fallbacks.
- Finish with the artifact in a better runnable state, not just a critique list.
Best Pairings
- Pair with
design-taste-frontendorgpt-tastefor stronger anti-slop redesign work. - Pair with
emilkowalski-motionor GSAP skills for motion-specific polish. - Pair with image/video skills when the artifact needs real visual assets rather than CSS-only decoration.
